ABSTRACT:
In a method for magnetic resonance imaging, by combined switching of radio-frequency excitation pulses, slice selection gradient pulses, phase-coding gradient pulses and readout gradient pulses, a matrix in the k-space is scanned row-by-row and transformed using a Fourier transformation into a matrix in the spatial domain, with the polarity of the slice selection gradient being inverted during the scanning of the k-matrix, allowing elimination of the ambiguity artifact.
